Travel by Cable Car in Mexico City-Iztapalapa

I understand that foreign people are afraid to visit the poor area of Mexico City. It is true that there are very dangerous areas and they are not pretty to see. I would like foreigners to open their minds and venture out of areas like Polanco, Roma or Reforma. We will take the transportation that normal Mexicans use on a daily basis. Upon arriving at the first cable car station, we will begin to see the ghetto and its surroundings. At no time will we go down. From that point, I will give you information about the different social classes in Mexico and why this country continues to be a place of poverty. Likewise, we will talk about Mexican culture and its valuable people. Specifically about the people who live in that area. You don't always have the opportunity to travel to a place like Latin America. So you have to make the most of the trip. The tour is English and/or Spanish. With me you will be safe :)
